Izzet drakes was, except for a few moments, boring to watch, way too many cantrips. I really liked the mono white (yeah I refuse to call it red-white) mirrors. Especially LSVs Semifinal. Golgari matches were also nice to watch.

I don't see that Teferi will ever be banned in modern. Modern right now has the tools and inherently different decks so that imho no deck can't truly opress the format.

You can't tune control to have a good game against dredge, tron, burn, midrange, storm, etc. at the same time. Modern is ah cycling format. The best deck this week can fall behind in a couple of weeks and be the best deck again a couple more weeks.

A slow azorius control build could imo be held in check with a nice izzet build with Niv-Mizzet, Parun and Banefire. There's only the question, how would this build stand against the rest of the meta.

I'm really not that big of a standart fan, but the format is pretty nice since Guilds of Ravnica. I'm really curious who will win this weekend. Maybe after these two days we will already have more knowledge and data to discus the Teferi question.

One problem I see, especially in tournament magic, is, that the "real pros" tend to gravitate towards control decks.

A control deck as the best deck wouldn´t even be a problem, but I really hated the "pure" controldeck, which only wincon was to shuffle Teferi back into the deck and mill the opponent with it. A control deck should always have a real wincon. It´s ok to win on turn 20, but not on turn 50 via decking. Especially in standart which should attract new players to the game. This has nothing to do with a fun game.
